Okay, so now you’re probably thinking (once again) that my blog is broken. Cuz after all that’s what I said on Feb. 13 and Jan. 30. But it’s true once again. I have my third new job in less than a months time. How exciting is that?

So I started out Feb as an IT Person at the Carlson School of Management at the UMN. Then I moved to a Legislative Assistant (LA) position for Rep. Matt Dean and Rep. Chris DeLaForest in the MN House of Representatives. On Monday I will start my new position as a Media Writer for the House Republican Caucus. So I’ll be working with the same people, in the same area, but doing different things. That’s alright with me.

The LA job was a Session Only position, but I knew when I took it there would be a great chance for me to get on full time. That’s one of the main reasons I took the position. I thought to myself “I’ll be on fulltime by Easter.” Lo, it has come true. So now I get benefits, vacation, etc. All that good stuff. Also, it’s’ an 87% of the time job. Basically I work 100% of the time from Jan – June, and 75% of the time July – Dec. It’s salaried though, so that’s alright. What can I say, but it’s pretty nice!

I should maybe state that I hadn’t applied for this position specifically, but they were interested in me. They had me interview one day last week, and then this morning they asked me if I would take the job. I’m excited. I’ll be doing press releases for a dozen Representatives, and doing some Web Site/IT stuff along with it. So it’s kinda like the best of both worlds. I guess the IT stuff won’t be so much until this summer. But still, I’m excited about this new position. Although I do feel slightly bad for my reps to have to go through tansition and teach a new LA how they like everything done.

Also, Happy Birthday to Mr. Mooney!
